What our skills management software does
Systematize skills management to strengthen your competencies and your client work
Dictate the skills your people will need to advance
Create a central repository that shows employees what skills they should be developing as they progress. For legal services skills, you may want to organize requirements by competency and then break them down by career stage (early, mid-level, senior). You can also establish general skills across departments, such as leadership skills, or distinct skills for each job or role. Choose whether progress is tracked by experience (from no experience with a skill all the way to mastering it) or by the number of times employees complete the skill.
Pinpoint missing skills and work experience
Use employee skills tracking to predict what each person is missing and what experience they need. As your people train and practice, they can use our skills management software to quickly update any progress and leave comments. Follow their overall progress (how many skills are complete, in progress, incomplete, or not started) and pinpoint what skill gaps they need to fill to advance in your organization. Employees can prioritize getting work experience to meet those requirements and managers can also strategically assign them relevant work.
Track skills acquired from projects and client work
To better track their employee skills progress while handling work for numerous clients, law firms and organizations can choose to have people update their skills based on each assignment or matter. Skills management software can integrate with your billing system so people can track their progress based on the work they bill for. It makes it easy on them, because they can consider everything they contributed to an individual project and update all their relevant skills in one go.
Get a bird’s-eye view of your organization’s skills and progress
Review a status report of who has updated their skills, with automatic reminders sent out to those who haven’t. Reminders can be sent out regularly, including weekly, monthly, or quarterly. Check on people who have no recorded experience in certain skills or find people with extensive experience in the skills you need. With a firm-wide view of data that can be filtered by department, office, or practice group, see what collective skills and experience your firm has. Identify expertise gaps and fill them with strategic talent management.
